Just thought I'd do a full check of all my fluids in time for Cerbs In The City on Sunday, so looked in the handbook which told me that the clutch flid resevoir was under the engine bay cover near the brake fluid resevoir. Took the cover off but no clutch fluid cap, resevoir or anything.

Any ideas anyone? Has it been moved in later models and if so, to where?

Its under the black plastic cover (approx 5" in diameter) next to the break fluid res. You'll have to remove the black sealant around it, as well as the 2 screws.

Make sure you re-seal it up, otherwise you will have a nice wet drivers footwell.

Yep, you need to take the top underscreen-finisher bit off (on my car, two allen screws, two posidrive screws & mind the washer fluid hoses), then dig around in the black silicon mess to locate two more screws (in my case, phillips head), then prise said 5" false tit off without shredding it. There, lo and behold, will be the clutch fluid reservoir screw-cap. Easy, eh?
